I really wanted to like this novel, I love clan or sect development novels. But like most people have said already, it just a collection of cliches from different Chinese novels. The novel is random and all over the place. The main character is supposed to be smart but makes random stupid decisions for unexplainable reasons. Instead of focusing on building his power while he is weak (like an actual smart person would do), he stupidly runs around being arrogant, feeling like he is above everyone else when in fact his cultivation is extremely low and he is not as smart as he thinks (To the point that he is even ignorant about his own body and cultivation). The power levels when it comes to the main character are all over the place. From what I have read so far, the mc's power level is basically whatever the author says it is at any given time.No cultivation? no problem, with his weapon he just randomly created and his (deus ex machina) intent he can basically kill anyone he wants. The power levels are basically a joke, even if the strongest person on the continent shows up, the author just needs to come up with some random (super Saiyan) reason for the mc with the lowest cultivation rank to be able to kill him easily. I mean, the mc basically boasts about how all-knowing he is, to the point of being able to raise anyone's cultivation at will. Wouldnt it be better for him to just raise his own cultivation to at least a decent level first? that would have the entire thing a lot more believable. Overall, I am really disappointed with this novel as it could have been way better. I decided to drop it as I could tell that it would only be a waste of time as this novel is going nowhere fast.

Forgive me if there any mistakes in the review, I'm typing this out on my phone. It appears that the author does not accept constructive criticism? I read until chapter 20; while many others only read a few chapters before reviewing, so I hope you do not attack me for reading only '20' chapters when reviewing. The grammar is subpar, to say the least, but the flow of the story is somewhat understandable and I can vaguely comprehend the general direction of the plot. Furthermore, the characters are like cut out cardboard figures with no real personality; it appears that they exist only to push the plot forward. Writing about a 'billion-year old master' is difficult, to say the least, when reading you somewhat expect for the MC to know of a limitless abundance of skills yet this not shown very well. Are we supposed to expect for the MC to have only been sleeping for most of those years? To even try to believe that is extremely unrealistic and requires a very broad mind from the readers. For a person who is writing to make money, the quality is honestly not high enough. I've read many other originals on the site which have far less publicity than this, yet those stories have a more defined plot and much better grammar/flow. So, I'll try to give my review according to the general system of WN. Writing Quality: 2.5, although the writing/grammar leaves something to be desired; it is somewhat understandable. Stability Of Updates: 5, the updates have been punctual as far as I can see. (Although I'm not sure if the quality has dropped over time as I stopped at C20.) Character Design: This is honestly a 1-1.5 for me, the idea of a 'billion-year-old' master is extremely badly portrayed. My personal feedback is this: Don't bite off more than you can chew, for your type of novel, the MC being designed as a legendary 50-100-year-old genius that once reached the peak would have been much better. Why? This leaves room for error, as it is extremely unbelievable for a billion-year-old monster to know such limited information. Furthermore, the way the MC acts is far too unbefitting of someone that ancient. But if the MC was only 50-100 years old which is still considered an elder in human terms, it allows us to actually have leeway in our mind to believe that the MC is human and can make mistakes; even though he was at the VERY PEAK of the ENTIRE universe in his last life. The side characters that I've seen up to C20 are also extremely plain, they exist solely for the readers to have a 'funny' and 'unreasonable' read when one is drunk and not thinking straight. This is fine for some, but not for me. Story Development: As I've said before, extremely plain where the chapters are spewed out only to be 'there' yet with no essential plot or meaning. 2-2.5. World Background: Although it's not fantastic, there is still a vague world I can picture while reading up to C20. - 2/5 Overall, this novel was extremely dull and boring to me which disappointed me greatly due to the number of 5-star-reviews, which made me feel a need to review this novel myself so as to balance it out. This novel's idea even though not crafted very well may appeal to some but not me. (I may have an higher expectation than your average reader which could be because I've been spoiled from the number of good novels β€” which naturally also includes originals, where the grammar is much better than this story and they also have very well-thought-out plot but have a lower rating/less popularity than this story. This was just my 2 cents on this novel. (I primarily created this since the large number of 5-star reviews did not match the content I expected)

Daily life of a cultivation judge

Yang Qing sighed as he gazed upon the black building that stood tall piercing the skies above with an inviolable aura around it. "The Order sure is black-hearted," he angrily thought as he made his way into the building begrudgingly. The building could be considered his home away from home and a source of endless grief for him due to its unforgiving working hours. The building housed the courtrooms of the Cultivation Order Society, an organization founded to maintain a semblance of order in the ruthless cultivation world of the southern continent who if left to their own devices would sink the whole continent to the ground. Due to how impetuous cultivators were, the cases never stopped. "Yi Jie, what do we have today?" "Two cultivators at the palace realm fought over a treasure and destroyed half of the territory of the blue deer kingdom in their fight, A rogue cultivator is suing the owner of the falling meteor blacksmith shop for selling him a faulty saber that keeps attracting lightning tribulations. A cultivator suffering from pill poisoning is blaming it on the white hilltop restaurant as he suspects they are feeding their spirit beasts pills to make them bigger and fatter. And the last case is 500 families are suing a cultivator by the name of Ren Fu for being negligent as a husband and a father whilst also pilfering their resources dry as he moves from place to place.," Awkward silence ensues........... Join me as we follow Yang Qing in his role as a judge in the Cultivation Order Society with cases and troubles that never seem to end. Fair warning the story has multiple POVs. Re-edited chapter (50/50) Second milestone (65/150) All support matters whether it's power stones, comments, reviews, golden tickets, subscriptions, or those who buy privilege chapters or even lurking readers..I welcome all your support in whatever format it comes in and I thank you for it, It really does mean a lot, especially to rookie authors like myself.

Dual Cultivation God Returns

"Wu Long, the God of Pleasure, has fallen as he failed to breakthrough." This news have shocked all of the Seven Boundless Worlds. Meanwhile, a sixteen-year-old disciple of a dual cultivation sect was startled awake from a coma, and after some moments of calming down and gathering his thoughts, a dangerous light flickered deep in his eyes: "Jun Shaoshan, I will climb back to the top and make you pay for everything, no one has ever been safe after offending me, Wu Long!" -------------- Dual cultivation is a method of cultivation that can be seen described in a lot of cultivation novels where a man and a woman cultivates together by having sex. -------------- ***DIscord Link: https://discord.gg/JfSRtJVXTd The Image on the cover is AI-generated with some minor adjustments and text editing done over it. Please check the auxiliary chapter with Frequently Asked Questions since there may be some answers to the questions you might want to ask. If you want to ask questions regarding the novel before reading you can do so in the comment section of the said auxiliary chapter. If you have posted a review and it is not appearing on the novel page and not changing the novel score, it may have stuck in the system (happened in the past and occasionally happening now). Please comment under the FAQ auxiliary chapter mentioned above if you notice this happen. I can usually contact support in daytime on weekdays and the problem is fixed within days and the 'stuck' reviews appear on the page. Thank you XD -------------- ***The explicit chapters will be marked in the chapter name after the chapter number as (R18) and will contain no crucial plot, only explicit scene, so if you want to read it as a novel without explicit scenes you absolutely can by just skipping the explicit chapters. Though as a disclaimer: dual cultivation IS the theme of the novel so there will still be some provocative or slightly explicit content in the normal chapters, but not full-on long explicit scenes. ***Since it seems that there are a lot of people that are very particular about what they want I will put here some of the things to expect so that it is easier for people to decide if they want to read this or not: - NO yaoi, NO yuri, NO incest ; - NO rape ( it may be mentioned, but only as a thing that exists, not in relation to any particular character ); - MC's heroines will NEVER cheat on him; - MC's heroines will NOT ALWAYS have V cards (but there will be a lot of them who do); These are all non-negotiable so if you cannot tolerate a novel that adheres to any of the above sentences you should probably skip this one. !!! WARNING (ADVERTISEMENT) there will be MILFs. XD
